She may not be a hacker, but she already embodies two of the three principal virtues of a programmer,
and "using computers in ways they were not intended" is the garden path from which all hackery springs.

This is pretty cool because of the fact that she's only 10 years old and because she is a very athletic and active girl. This thing obviously isn't anywhere near groundbreaking, but it's still quite interesting.

This is a useless hack. When I had an iPod Touch when I was 9 (I'm twelve right now), I used to do this all the time. I don't know what is so special. I read the title and thought it would be something amazon. And it is not an "exploit"

She discovered a bug. There is no 'hacking' here. She is not a 'hacker'. She did nothing to modify the game code, she didn't redirect its' functions to accomplish anything that wasn't intended. Why people are giving this girl kudos and calling here a 'hacker' is stupid. Those people are stupid. All this girl did was discover a bug in the software to make crops grow. That's it. Stop giving praise where it isn't warranted.
